EU bans crucifix from Italy’s classrooms

by Sara Levy

The European Court of Human Rights has ordered the Italian state to pay €5,000 in damages to a woman who fought for eight years to have crucifixes removed from her children’s classrooms in Italy.
According to the court, the practice of hanging crucifixes on classrooms walls violates the right of parents to educate their children as they see fit.
In addition, the practice contravenes children’s right to freedom of the religion.
The ruling by the court’s seven judges has caused uproar in Italy, and could prompt a Europe-wide review on displaying religious symbols in public premises.

This is just the start. The EU will ban many many many things
before people wake up to the EU agenda.

Watch this space.

The EU has nothing to do with the European Court of Human Rights.
